《孩子的代价：在一个没有选择之地失去的童年》[有声书]
A powerful church. An acquiescent government. In The Price of Children, investigative journalist Maria Laurino details the shocking story of mothers and children deceived and exploited as directed by the highest levels of the Vatican. Between 1950 and 1970, the Vatican and the American Catholic Church sent nearly four thousand Italian children to the United States for adoption into “good” Catholic homes. With the religious stigma of unwed motherhood turning families against daughters and a Church and State wanting “illegitimate” children sent abroad, mothers were lied to, given forms to sign that they didn’t understand, or even told their baby had died, all to further supply this international adoption pipeline. Maria Laurino uncovers archival correspondence among priests who ran this program; provides testimonies from birth mothers and their adopted children; and with passion and insight, considers how the intersection of Catholicism, women, sex, and sin shaped private lives. The Price of Children is a moving and brilliant account about the tenacity of people searching for their origins and trying to answer long-buried questions. It is a chilling lesson for post-Dobbs America as the author describes the danger of a powerful church and acquiescent government dictating the shape of a woman’s life.
强大的教会，顺从的政府。在《孩子的代价》中，调查记者玛利亚·劳尔诺（Maria Laurino）详细讲述了被最高级别的梵蒂冈指使而受骗和剥削的母亲与孩子的故事。1950年至1970年间，教廷与美国天主教会将近四千名意大利儿童送往美国，让他们进入“好”天主家庭的领养计划。因为未婚生育带来的宗教污名让家庭抵制女儿，并且教会和政府希望把“非法”孩子送出国门，母亲们被欺骗、被迫签署自己并不理解的形式，甚至被告知他们的婴儿已去世，以此进一步推动这一国际领养管道。玛利亚·劳尔诺揭露了负责这项计划的神父之间的档案信件；提供了出生母亲及其收养子女的证词，并怀着激情和洞察力地探讨天主教、女性、性与罪恶如何塑造私人生活。《孩子的代价》是一部关于人们努力寻找起源并试图解答长久埋藏问题的故事，它以一种感人的方式向我们展示了他们的毅力。在作者描述了强大教会和顺从政府如何操纵一个女人的生活后，《孩子的代价》成为了一堂对于美国《达布斯案件》之后的严厉教训。
